Their courage and resilience inspired me to share their stories, shed light on the systemic gaps in support, and ignite a movement for change. My hope is that this book will not only raise awareness but also empower communities to build a future where every child is valued, included, and given the opportunity to reach their full potential.”

Rachelle Rutherford is the strategic visionary and Chief Executive Officer of Kids on the Move (KOTM), a trailblazing multimillion-dollar nonprofit committed to essential and comprehensive support, education, and therapies for children with delays and disabilities. To help raise $150M to expand KOTM’s support services and establish a state-of-the-art autism center, Rachelle partnered with Forbes Books to author and publish her debut book, Chasing the Impossible, a captivating exposé delving into Kids on the Move’s transformative work.
Her profound understanding of what it takes to overcome the impossible stems from her own journey as a survivor of abuse and trauma, which has shaped her philanthropic missions, intuitive nature, and steadfast leadership.
